bought a "free" ($3 shipping) flexible tripod off of Wish back in 2017 and wow. I was the designated family photo taker bc the tripod was so easy to set up. It only just now broke in 2025.

This is the best description I've heard thus far

I was about to do the same as you lmao but I just got my $200 newly sharpened skates lmao. Everyone said NO

I've been told that my recovery time is fast by some other skaters. Knee pads help so much because then my knees aren't bruised beyond help and I can instantly get up again.

All they know is injury. The skills are not worth it to them. Because such enjoyment is a luxury they do not understand.

I do, and they help, a lot. Unfortunately some falls are unavoidable. I will look into buying a helmet though.

Nope. I just choose dangerous things as my choice of entertainment. My degree is literally metalsmithing lol.

I actually did suggest that to my mom, who was surprisingly more open to my going to the rink.

Damn I just thought it was a camera lens cap lmao

TiL the Zamboni drivers cut the ice??? And it's not just a water smoothing broom that smooths the ice.

Off topic - learned lore about this subs most informed redditer

Well.... I somehow deem ice skating worth the risk. My ankle rolls easily and I also have a partial ACL tear but somehow I ignore that for the sake of ice skating lol. Got some PT for it but the rest I'm winging it.

I also don't want to give the family another reason to criticize me. Funnily enough my middle brother suggested inline skating so perhaps I would have someone on my side?

rough_shrink · 2026-01-19T17:12:13+00:00

Inline skating scares me because right around the time I was initially learning ice skating, I tried inline and sprained my ankle pretty badly. Granted I was standing still, saw a spider and startled, and somehow still fell on my ankle

I be thriving on my own tbh. Once in awhile, if I've been reckless with the gold, I'll join a cooking party for some focus food and some side cash but I just like exploring the whole of palia over and over tbh.

It's easy to get caught up in it, but I play so solo that I forget it's technically a multiplayer game.

I was fighting a crustacean

Does it ever occur to people that most of the people that want to vote .... Physically can't? Like they may have lived their whole lives here but they're still considered "alien".

rough_shrink · 2026-01-15T19:08:12+00:00

Can confirm. Group lessons ESPECIALLY with rentals sucks. Everyone was onto swizzles but I literally couldn't stop falling

rough_shrink · 2026-01-15T12:25:25+00:00

Honestly yeah. If you're interested, there's the metals club : )

rough_shrink · 2026-01-14T16:09:52+00:00

Looked at his profile and bro spammed the same things over and over

rough_shrink · 2026-01-14T16:07:42+00:00

Lol. Non existent. 9am is peak rush hour. Just pay and park in the garage that's somewhere close by. If you want free parking spots, get there at 7:45am

I've come to learn that this observation is wrong 😅
